Substitute the given value of force in short ton-force, i.e., Force(Short Ton-Force) in the above formula and simplify the right-hand side value. The resulting value is the force in poundals, i.e., Force(Poundals).
Calculation
Calculation will be done after you enter a valid input.
Examples
1
Consider a crane lifting a load that requires 2 short ton-force. Convert this force from short ton-force to Poundals.
Answer:
Given:
The force of crane lifing a load in short ton-force is:
Force(Short Ton-Force) = 2
Formula:
The formula to convert force from short ton-force to poundals is:
Substitute given weight of structure, Force(Short Ton-Force) = 5 in the above formula.
Force(Poundals) = 5 × 6.434809711285822e+4
Force(Poundals) = 321740.4856
Final Answer:
Therefore, 5 short tonf is equal to 321740.4856 pdl.
The force of structure is 321740.4856 pdl, in poundals.
Short Ton-Force
Short ton-force represents the force exerted by the weight of a short ton (2,000 pounds) under standard gravity. It is used primarily in the United States to describe large forces in engineering, construction, and mechanics.
Poundals
A poundal (pdl) is a unit of force in the foot-pound-second (FPS) system, equal to about 0.138 newtons. It is used in some engineering and physics applications to measure force in non-SI units.
